Meeting of the Mayors
The Mayors in Cameroon have much more power than Mayors in Canada. They are basically mayor and city manager rolled into one. Their councils meet once every three months and after the budget has passed, they have total authority within those guidelines. Getting them together has been difficult, as many of them have to travel 8 hours to get to Bamenda. Luckily the new Governor was being installed today, so they were all in town and we had our big meeting this afternoon with 22 of them. I made my presentation and with a few minor changes they accepted my recommendations on trainng. I will do two workshops - one this week and one next.
